+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The Apache HTTP server is one of the most popular web servers on the
+ Internet.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Apache HTTP
+ server:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Jonathan Peatfield reported that the
+ "Options=IncludesNoEXEC" argument to the "AllowOverride" directive is
+ not processed properly (CVE-2009-1195).</li>
+ <li>Sander de Boer
+ discovered that the AJP proxy module (mod_proxy_ajp) does not correctly
+ handle POST requests that do not contain a request body
+ (CVE-2009-1191).</li>
+ <li>The vendor reported that the HTTP proxy
+ module (mod_proxy_http), when being used as a reverse proxy, does not
+ properly handle requests containing more data as stated in the
+ "Content-Length" header (CVE-2009-1890).</li>
+ <li>Francois Guerraz
+ discovered that mod_deflate does not abort the compression of large
+ files even when the requesting connection is closed prematurely
+ (CVE-2009-1891).</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A local attacker could circumvent restrictions put up by the server
+ administrator and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the
+ user running the Apache server. A remote attacker could send multiple
+ requests to a server with the AJP proxy module, possibly resulting in
+ the disclosure of a request intended for another client, or cause a
+ Denial of Service by sending specially crafted requests to servers
+ running mod_proxy_http or mod_deflate.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Remove "include", "proxy_ajp", "proxy_http" and "deflate" from
+ APACHE2_MODULES in make.conf and rebuild Apache, or disable the
+ aforementioned modules in the Apache configuration.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Apache users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-servers/apache-2.2.11-r2&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
